The DESERTEC Concept for EU‐MENAThe best sites offer the greatest benefit for climate protection
For the same investment, the best sites can produce more clean electricityand therefore replace more conventional power
Solar energy especially in the south, wind power in coastal areas, hydropower in the mountains, biomass in fertile central Europe, geothermal as available

Step 2:Solar field with Heat Storage for Night operation + boiler as back up. Solar share ~99% & ~ 1% bio-fuel for days with sand storms or clouds

MENA Europe
MENA: Power from deserts mainly for local electricity demand and desalination
Europe: Expansion of domestic renewable energies
Dispatchable desert power complements the European electricity mix, enabling a higher proportion of PV & Wind, thus quickening the shift to a renewable energy supply

The DESERTEC concept for 10 billion people
Responsibility when managing the remaining resources Education for wise Resource Management
All peoples of the earth shall have a realistic chance for development.
Energy for Development
Collect energy from the deserts, as it is abundant and not usedThe Sun gives in 6 hours the Energy used in one year
Transport the collected energy from the deserts over long distances to the users
Via HVDC, an available technology
Produce potable water by desalination to satisfy food demandClean Electricity and use of Waste Heat for Desalination
24
Long term power purchase agreement to supply clean Energy from MENA to EU
MENA shall shift subsidies from Oil/Gas for electricityproduction to subsidising delivered electricity, givingpriority to localy produced components.
Ground an EU‐MENA company that builds HVDC linesbetween EU and MENA.
Ground an EU Company that that buys clean electricityfrom MENA and sells it to the EU grid.
Agree that the delivery of electricity is coupled with a reasonable amount of desalted seawater: e.g. 20‐40 m³ for each MWh delivered electricity.
What can we do to foster Development of MENA?
